Why does Lebanon seem trapped in a cycle of political paralysis, foreign interference, and violence? In this episode, Rabbi Pesach Wolicki and Pastor Doug Reed step back from the headlines to explore the deeper story behind Lebanon's ongoing crisis. From the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the creation of Lebanon's unique political system to the rise of Hezbollah and Iran's growing influence, they explain how a century of decisions has produced one of the Middle East's most dysfunctional states. Along the way, Doug shares stories from his travels across America, including an unexpected conversation about Israel with a former Major League Baseball All-Star. The result is a wide-ranging discussion about history, geopolitics, faith, and why understanding Lebanon is essential to understanding the modern Middle East.

This week on #ScotsinUs, we join Elizabeth Manson, President of The Mary Queen of Scots Societyy and representatives of the Scottish Ballet to learn more about The History Behind the New Modern Scottish Ballet and Mary Queen of Scots. The discussion will focus on the historical events surrounding Mary Stuart's turbulent reign, her relationship with Queen Elizabeth I, and the final days she spent in Scotland before fleeing across the border into England. Manson's research often highlights the regional history of Southwest Scotland, particularly the communities and castles Mary passed through on her final journey in May 1568.

Uncovering Women Miners' Forgotten Legacy in the ‘Swiss Alps' of Sequoia National Park  Mineral King is located in the southern part of Sequoia National Park but its remote location means it gets fewer visitors than other parts of the park. So the campers and backpackers that make the trek are rewarded with a spectacular mountain range with rushing waterfalls. There are only a handful of buildings here, including some historic wooden cabins that belong to a few families who've been here long before this was a national park. One of those cabins belongs to Laile Di Silvestro's family. Her connection to Mineral King goes back to the 1870s. Today, she's an archeologist, and she's looking for the stories she didn't hear growing up. In 2024, as part of our Hidden Gems series, host Sasha Khokha hiked Mineral King with Di Silvestro to learn about some surprising trail blazers in the California Gold Rush, and the discrimination some people faced during those boom times. The World's Largest Bishop Pine Forest Is in Point Reyes California is home to a lot of iconic trees, including giant sequoias, windswept Monterey cypresses, and Joshua trees. The bishop pine doesn't have that kind of celebrity status. But if you live on the Point Reyes Peninsula in west Marin County you're all too familiar with it. These indigenous trees are so well-suited to growing here, that to locals they're notorious pests, not because of how easily they grow, but because of how they die. In 2024, reporter Lusen Mendel took us to Tomales Bay State Park to meet someone who's made it his mission to deal with the pesky and strangely loveable pines. Welcome to Rough and Ready, the Tiny Town That Used to Be a Republic We head to the Nevada County town of Rough and Ready, about 5 miles west of Grass Valley.  In 1850, it seceded from the nation and temporarily became its own republic. In 2017, KQED's Bianca Taylor spoke to a proud resident of Rough and Ready to learn more about the town's history, and how it got its name. Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us Fan MailCommunity wealth building for nonprofits takes center stage in this lively discussion, as Lauren Turner Hines of the André Cailloux Center shares how art, history, ownership, and earned revenue can become a powerful operating model. This is a deeply strategic conversation for nonprofit leaders thinking about sustainability, capital campaigns, cultural infrastructure, and the future of community-centered growth.Lauren Turner Hines, Founding ‘Envisionist' and Executive Lead of the André Cailloux Center in New Orleans, takes us inside a 114-year-old former church on historic Bayou Road, the oldest thoroughfare in the city and a corridor with deep roots in Black commerce, freedom, and cultural leadership. Named for Captain André Cailloux, one of the first Black officers in the United States military, the Center is using storytelling as both mission and business strategy.The conversation moves quickly from history into operating reality. Lauren explains how the Center provides affordable space for Black-led performing arts organizations, hosts performances, convenings, workshops, and community events, and builds earned revenue through tours and programming. At the center of the model is a clear business question: how can a nonprofit's physical space create direct value for the community around it?Lauren offers a sharp answer through the Cailloux Community Equity Fund, a developing model that would allow nearby residents to hold community shares in the building and benefit from quarterly revenue share. As she puts it, “Relationships are the asset.” She also shares her five-year vision: “I hope for a direct community wealth transfer in the multimillions and for art and culture to be the catalyst for that.”This conversation also explores nonprofit capital campaign strategy, founder succession, board leadership, technology systems, and how organizations can avoid letting knowledge, donor relationships, and institutional context live with one person.For nonprofit executives, fundraisers, board members, arts leaders, and community builders, this is a fresh look at sustainability that moves beyond survival and toward shared economic power! 00:00:00 Welcome to The Nonprofit Show 00:02:52 The History Behind the Andre Caillou Center 00:07:04 Using Story as a Nonprofit Mission Strategy 00:10:32 Creating Access for Black-Led Arts Organizations 00:12:49 Turning Space Into Earned Revenue 00:14:37 Navigating Today's Funding Reality 00:16:27 Why Relationships Are the Asset 00:18:17 Community Wealth Building as a Nonprofit Model 00:20:14 The Caillou Community Equity Fund 00:22:03 A Five-Year Vision for Shared Ownership 00:24:29 Founder Syndrome and Succession Planning 00:28:37 Leadership, Legacy, and Long-Term Community Power #TheNonprofitShow #NonprofitFunding #CommunityWealthBuildingFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us  Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits!  12:30pm ET   11:30am CT  10:30am MT  9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Most people think sugar is just a health issue—but the truth goes much deeper.In this episode, we uncover the dark history behind sugar no one talks about—a story that goes beyond cravings and calories and into slavery, sugar plantations, and systems like convict leasing that continued forced labor long after emancipation.Registered nurse Shun Foreman shares how her journey started with understanding sugar's impact on the body—diabetes, metabolic disease, and chronic illness—and led her to a much bigger realization: the story of sugar has been largely left out of what we're taught.This conversation connects the dots between: the historical roots of sugar production  the exploitation tied to sugar plantations  the long-term impact on communities and health  and why sugar continues to affect behavior and well-being today We also explore why awareness alone isn't enough to break free from sugar—and how understanding your deeper “why” can change the way you approach it for good.If you've ever struggled to cut sugar, felt stuck in cycles with food, or sensed there's more to the story than “just eat less,” this episode will give you a perspective you likely haven't heard before.Enjoyed this episode?

Margarine might seem like an ordinary kitchen staple, but its history is anything but boring. In this episode, originating from Trina's listener question, Michelle takes Kevin down a surprising rabbit hole that includes government bans, dairy industry lobbying, smuggling across Canadian borders, and even a literal “colour war” over whether margarine could be yellow.What seems like a simple butter substitute has a surprisingly dramatic past. Margarine has sparked political fights, government bans, and even a black market. And just when it was celebrated as the healthier choice, science uncovered a twist that changed how we think about it entirely.So is margarine actually healthier than butter? Michelle breaks down the latest nutrition research, explains how modern margarines are made, and shares practical tips for choosing healthier spreads. As always, the real takeaway goes beyond a single ingredient: it's about the overall quality of your diet.If you thought margarine was boring, think again.Please subscribe and drop us a review—your feedback helps fellow noobs find their way to better nutrition.Have a question for Michelle?

As Donald Trump holds the world hostage with his sloppy Iran War, and JD Vance campaigns for Orban, the Kremlin's weapon in Hungary, Gaslit Nation returns to a shared family history of resistance. Andrea is joined this week by the brilliant artist Maya Hayuk to break down the story behind Andrea's new graphic novel, Mrs. Orwell. Born from a decade of research into the Holodomor, Stalin's genocide famine in Ukraine, Mrs. Orwell is a monument to an unsung heroine of literature and the truth the Kremlin tried to bury. We also cover the horrifying reality of the current front lines of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, where the UNESCO heritage site of L'viv's ancient city center was bombed by Russia while the U.S. sleepwalks through yet another "war of choice." While we share the intense rage of seeing Ukrainians having to bailout Trump and Vance in Iran, we remain focused on the agency of the people. The oligarch mafia model, which relies on apathy, despair, and nihilism, is being challenged by a culture of defiance.  We end with a miraculous artifact: a 1947 Ukrainian translation of Animal Farm discovered in both Andrea and Maya's families. This book, distributed in post-WWII refugee camps, is a sign that the spirit of rebellion cannot be extinguished. We refuse to be "useful idiots" for the transnational crime network; we have each other, and we are going to build a better world from the ashes.  For our bonus episode out later this week, we take a closer look at JD and Usha Vance's trip to Hungary to serve the Kremlin, and the latest hellscape headlines.

When I was studying videography and photography in college, I expected to spend most of my time thinking about lenses, lighting ratios, audio capture, and editing timelines. Then I walked into a Media Law class that changed the way I looked at everything I was creating. The professor was not just an academic. He was a practicing media lawyer. He represented music groups, photographers, and creative professionals. He was based in Pittsburgh, but he fought cases well beyond it. Some were national. Some crossed borders. He spoke about disputes that affected real careers, real albums, real images, and real money. It was one of those classes where you never stopped taking notes. Not because you were afraid of a test, but because you realized this was the infrastructure underneath the creative industries. We had always heard about copyright for books, about early authors protecting their writings. But then the discussion moved into recorded sound, into the era of Thomas Edison and the phonograph, into mechanical reproduction, into photography, and into the idea that a machine capturing something still required a human author behind it. That is when it clicked for me. Creative technology changes. The law follows. And every new medium forces the legal system to answer the same questions again. In Part 1, we traced how copyright moved from the Constitution to photography. In this part, we shift from ownership to limits. Even if you own the image, that does not mean you can use it however you want. This is where privacy law enters.

In this episode of The FasterFreedom Show, Sam is running it solo while Lucas is out sick to tackle a big (and often emotional) question: is the current financial system broken? And more importantly—is that even the right question to be asking?He explains why that framing is actually a trick question. Instead of arguing that the system is malfunctioning, he breaks down why it may be working exactly as it was originally designed to. The conversation includes a brief history lesson on the origins of the modern financial framework, touching on early industrial power players like Rockefeller and how centralized banking, employer-based retirement plans, and consumer finance evolved over time.Most importantly, Sam shifts the focus to what you can actually control. Instead of blaming the system, he talks about how to operate strategically inside it. From ownership of real assets to financial education to thinking long-term about leverage and cash flow, he lays out practical ways to build freedom—even if the system wasn't designed with your success as the priority.This episode blends history, financial philosophy, and actionable perspective to help you stop asking whether the game is fair—and start asking how to play it better.Join our FREE real estate community on Skool: ⁠https://www.skool.com/relaunchFasterFreedom Capital Connection: ⁠https://fasterfreedomcapital.com⁠Free Rental Investment Training: ⁠https://freerentalwebinar.com

For many people with disabilities, the kitchen can seem a deeply unfriendly place. From counters that require users to stand and cabinets that are often out of reach, to ovens that can't be opened in mobility chairs and tools that are hard to grip or difficult to read—cooking can seem like an impossible challenge. But it doesn't have to be this way. In fact, since the mid-1900s, researchers, designers, and people with disabilities have worked together to reimagine the kitchen in ways that have made it better for all of us. Listen in for this hidden history behind many of your favorite cooking tools, from OXO Good Grips to the Cuisinart food processor, as well as the inspiring stories of how today's blind and disabled cooks have hacked their kitchens to achieve both dinner deliciousness and culinary glory. All that, plus cameos from the household names who turn out to be accessibility legends: Betty Crocker and Julia Child! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Saturday, January 3rd, President Trump announced that a military raid on Caracas had captured Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, and brought him back to the US to face drug charges. The operation followed months of deadly US strikes against boats purportedly ferrying drugs from Venezuela and a military buildup off its coast. But even after Maduro was seized, the administration still could not, or would not, clearly explain its intense interest in Venezuela any more than it could explain its plans for the country. And beyond the practicalities of “running” Venezuela, as Trump said the US would be doing, are even more disturbing questions about what comes next under the “Donroe doctrine”—the administration's update of the 202-year-old Monroe Doctrine, which was used to justify generations of US interventions throughout the Western Hemisphere. This episode of On the Nose turns to a foremost expert on US interference in Latin America, Greg Grandin, to help us understand the historical context of Trump's surge—and what it may suggest about his military adventures going forward. A Pulitzer Prize-winning history professor at Yale, Grandin has written several books on the tangled history of the US and Latin America, including his sweeping 2025 chronicle, America, América: A New History of the New World. Jewish Currents editor-at-large Peter Beinart asks Grandin to break down the political situation in Venezuela and the history of its nationalized oil reserves—and to explain what Trump's new doctrine of pure power may hold in store for the US and the Americas.

Frozen fingers, live riffs, and zero safety nets. We kick off the year with a behind-the-scenes look at playing a New Year's Eve set in brutal cold, why we refuse to mime to tracks, and how TV “post-fix” can make a one‑song club cut feel more polished than the real thing. From numb hands at soundcheck to signature licks under pressure, we pull back the curtain on what audiences hear—and what they never see.That honesty sets up two new series we're launching this year. History Behind the Hits goes inside the songwriting and the moments that turned into staples, while Small Town Stories invites you to send the heroic, un-Googleable tales from your community so we can spotlight one each week. Along the way we argue about language levels, trimming the F‑bombs that don't serve, and keeping the ones that punch with purpose. We also trade lake house fantasies for the maintenance reality and share a candid family health scare that reminded us how fast life can change.Then we hit the hot button: Dry January and the weight-loss “journey” myth. We're happy for anyone getting healthier, including those using semaglutide, but we call for clear language when shortcuts do the heavy lifting. The same truth-to-power energy fuels our college football breakdown: Alabama's 38–3 gut punch, Georgia's risk-reward calls, and why long layoffs, NIL, and the transfer portal are tilting the sport toward parity and yearly turnover at the top. It's part therapy, part strategy session, and a promise to keep the conversation grounded in what's real.If you care about live music, small-town grit, and smarter sports talk, you're in the right place. Hit follow, share this with a friend who loves a good myth-bust, and drop your Small Town Story for a chance to be featured this season.

What does New Year's Day really mean—and why do we celebrate it the way we do?In this episode of the MX3 Podcast, we break down the history of New Year's traditions, from ancient calendars and midnight rituals to modern-day resolutions and symbolic actions meant to bring luck, love, and financial success into the year ahead.

This episode is a reminder that the new year isn't about recovering from the night before—it's about intentional choices and momentum.

Looking at the macabre background behind the Nahanni National Park Reserve where several people have been found dead with theories ranging from a legendary creature to a serial killer, the Valley of the Headless Men. Support us directly: https://www.redwebpod.com In the early 1900s, two brothers had heard rumors of gold that lay in the remote Nahanni Valley. They set off to extract these riches, only to never return home. They were eventually found beheaded. Was it the greed of prospectors, looking to have the loot all to themselves? Or the evil energy that the indigenous always believed inhabited the land? Today, we're investigating the Valley of the Headless Men.

John and Bob explore how a little-known thread of mid-20th-century Pentecostalism shaped modern dominionist movements. They uncover the role of William Branham, Roy Davis, Tommy Hicks, and political forces like Richard Nixon in transforming Joel's prophecy into a militant vision of a supernaturally empowered youth army. The conversation exposes how the same ideas re-emerged in Kansas City, laying foundations for IHOPKC and the New Apostolic Reformation—alongside patterns of manipulation, exploitation, and spiritual authoritarianism. ______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________- Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

Like Putin, Donald Trump is determined to hide from the people. He's promising that a taxpayer-funded FBI–run by MAGA troll Kash Patel–will “secure” the next election. The MAGA cult plans to steal it, again. And with Republican gerrymandering, bot farms from Russia to China, and Elon Musk's Twitter turned into a disinformation landfill, he just might pull it off. Again.  Causing one of the longest government shutdowns in American history – again – Trump gives Argentina a $40 billion bailout. Why Argentina? It's where a lot of Nazis fled after World War II, and maybe where the Trumps plan to flee after Americans end their crime spree. It's a bold strategy: betray your own farmers to curry favor with your future Nazi refuge.  Meanwhile, the convicted felon-in-chief is busy literally demolishing the White House. The East Wing is being gutted to make space for what amounts to a kleptocratic ballroom: a pay-to-play shrine for oligarchs and hangers-on. Melania already desecrated Jackie Kennedy's Rose Garden, turning it into a cement Panera Bread patio. It's as if the Trumps are trying to erase everything beautiful about American democracy and replace it with a bedazzled monument to authoritarianism, to repay their Russian backers driven to win a Cold War rematch.

Daniel 11 stands as one of the most remarkably detailed prophecies in all of Scripture, outlining centuries of political conflict, alliances, and rulers long before they ever existed. From the rise of Persian kings and Alexander the Great to the power struggles of the Seleucid and Ptolemaic empires, this chapter demonstrates the unparalleled historical and prophetic accuracy of the Book of Daniel.Scholars and skeptics alike have wrestled with how precisely Daniel 11 mirrors the Hellenistic era, detailing events that align perfectly with ancient records. This level of detail makes Daniel one of the most intellectually compelling and academically verified prophetic texts in the Bible.Join Lonaiah and Pastors Jim and John as they examine the historical context, archaeological evidence, and theological implications of Daniel 11—revealing how its fulfilled prophecy validates the divine inspiration of Scripture and points forward to the end times events yet to unfold.

From ancient Sumerian epics to modern-day sightings in England's Cannock Chase, the werewolf has terrorized humanity for over 2,000 years — and the real history includes medieval trials that tortured and executed thousands of accused shapeshifters, medical conditions that spawned the legends, and 35 documented sightings in a single forest that continue to this day. Journey through the dark truth behind lycanthropy, from the She-Wolves of Jülich who allegedly killed 94 people to the shocking werewolf trials that made witch hunts look merciful, and discover why every culture on Earth has its own terrifying version of the wolf-human hybrid.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: The idea of the werewolf has been with us for a long time – the first mention of a werewolf that we know of is over two thousand years ago. We'll look at the origins of the werewolf, look at whether they are actually real, and if so, how one goes about becoming one, and some of the cures believed to release the man from the beast. Of course, it's not always the Wolf-Man… sometimes it's the Wolf-Woman. We'll look at the most fearsome lady werewolves throughout history! I'll tell you about the trials and punishments of those convicted of being werewolves – many probably wish they'd have confessed to being witches instead! Plus, what if I was to tell you that werewolves truly ARE real – and that a small village has been terrorized by them for decades – right up to modern day? There is convincing evidence to back up my claim!
